Real Madrid ready to facilitate Ferland Mendy's departure
Ferland Mendy will not be part of Xabi Alonso's plans this season. Hampered by recurring injuries and inconsistent performances, the French left-back is now being pushed towards the exit.
Signed in 2019 as a bold move by Florentino Pérez, Mendy has never truly lived up to expectations, despite a few key moments, notably during the 2022 Champions League campaign. To make his transfer easier, Real Madrid is said to have lowered his asking price.
This is a strategic decision to attract interested clubs. Italian sides are already circling. Manchester United are also reportedly monitoring the situation. With Fran García and the possible promotion of a youth academy player, Xabi Alonso is ready to turn the page. Mendy's departure now appears inevitable.
